HSE to run drug-testing service at several summer festivals

  1. This is a great idea, we had the DroBZ bus years ago in Hannover outside the raves, that was in the 90s. They’re only catching up now, but at least it’s progress.

  2. Didn’t this basically turn into a drug surrender service last year? Hand over your drugs and we will test them, but you cannot keep any. The Gardai won’t allow this “as advertised”. I think they put out comms last year saying they will still be cracking down on any drug possession and taking.

  3. And the guards will be waiting close by to nab folks.

    3 people I know used this at EP the last time it was there. Low and behold not even an hour after dropping off what they wanted tested 2 cops roll up and proceed to search them. 2 of them had drugs on them and got cautions.

    Fuck the HSE and their stupid fucking attempts. Buy your own test kits they’re accessible online and there are loads. Don’t trust the government or the HSE or the guards to have your best interests at heart because they dont..

    As it currently stands Simon Harris blames drug users for Ireland’s drug problems. They don’t give a fuck about you or your safety. If they did then prohibition would have ended years ago.

    Health lead approach my ass.

  4. How convenient for the Garda, they can just stop and search anyone leaving the testing area, and hit monthly targets with minimal effort. They must be rubbing their little hands together
